Jordan begins flying medical aid into Gaza by helicopter
Gaza, devastated after more than a year of war, still has urgent shortages of food and medicine. Jordan has begun flying helicopters into Gaza with medical supplies. NPR joined one of the flights.
Hasnain says:
“ARRAF: It was really surreal because you don't see anything living in that part of Deir al-Balah, which has been heavily hit. I mean, really, it - from what we were seeing, it was just rubble. And it's important to note that Israel prevented us, according to the Jordanian authorities, from taking photographs on the ground of what we were seeing. The only thing we could take photos of once we landed were the buffer zone and the helicopter. But to actually see it real, in real life, was really unreal.”
